Thanks for your advice Bugbee, I have seen a hematologist, and she took blood (5 vials of it in fact). She referred me to a doctor who performed a EGD, and Colonoscopy, and found Ulcers in Color Cecum, and Internal Hemorrhoids. He put me on high fiber diet, prep H, and sitz bath, which is nothing new. Before I saw the blood doctor, I started myself on iron supplement therpy, and the doctor said to continue it. I also started Vit "C" to help my body to absorde the iron. My primary care physician will be monotoring my blood count. The blood doctor did not seem to have many answers to my condition. I have been Anemic most of my life, but not to the degree now. Mostly I was told by doctors, my stomch produces too much acid, thus impeding the absorption of iron, and other Vitimins. The blood doctor said that I was at a point of needing a blood transfusion, but I do not take other peoples blood, so puts me in a questional situation. I also have or had 3d stage renal desease.

I’m eating 600 calories a day.. Many have said I need more fiber..

I am 5’3" and 123lbs if that helps?

I had IBS, now I have a hemorrhoid, got a lump " in there " for a few days now, I was given a cream just today but should I be concerned if I left blood stains where I sat ? Is it becoming serious ? This is my first time having such a disease, I’m anxious.
The bleeding won’t stop, I changed my underwear twice now.

Hi everyone,

I’m 40 weeks pregnant I’ve been very blessed to have a symptom-free pregnancy up until now… However 2 days before my estimated due date (EDD) I woke up in the morning and my rectal area was extremely itchy and painful feeling… I’ve never felt anything like this ever before and quite frankly I’m worried about it! I don’t know how to describe this without being very straight-forward so pardon me if my language offends anyone Basically the area itches, burns, and hurts. I looked at it in the mirror (as best as I could anyway!) And it looks like an inflamed "butthole wrikle" or possibly a swollen vein. It’s only on one side and a very small area (thank God!)

I just always thought that hemorrhoids were a big external "pocket"- which is why I’m wondering if this could be a small hemorrhoid from the baby having dropped into the birth canal?? (If it makes a difference: I’ve been dilated to 2 cm. for 2 weeks now with 70-80% effacement)

-I’m wondering if a vaginal child birth will aggravate this problem further?
-I’m also wondering if this will completely resolve on it’s own following the birth, or will I need to see a doctor about it- and my question is who do I see about it?
-Also, what remedies can I use in the meantime?
